Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I just received this today and have played with it a little over 2 hours, but I'm very impressed with it for the price. I have both an xBox 360 wired controller and the Steam controller (which is my main controller for games like Rocket League and indies) in place, and wanted this because I like the form factor of the 360, but find the rear paddles on the Steam controller crucial for how I play. I'm extremely pleased to say in that criteria, the Power A Enhanced controller meets this mix perfectly! It feels great, and the rear triggers are well placed, though not nearly as large as the Steam. The thumbsticks are excellent and have comfortable gripping for constant use. The surface does have a great feel, and the overall build is strong and solid. The area where it loses a half star for me is the squishiness of the triggers and rear paddle buttons. It'll take some getting used to, but I don't think it's a deal-breaker by any means. Another area (which caused me to check off the 4 stars) is the "proprietary" cable you need to use for the controller. It's a long cable for sure (9.8ft), but like someone else mentioned, the cable jack has a notch that only accepts their usb connector - it's no different than any micro-usb connector, but only theirs will fit. The triggers are also a little cheaper in their plastic quality over the 360 controller or the Steam, but they don't wobble or feel like they will break under use. Setting the rear paddles is extremely easy, and a no-brainer. Overall, the feel, build, and options set this above the class competition - especially at anything even close to this price-point. There are some minor quibbles, but to get these options elsewhere in this form factor, you'd be able to buy 4 of these in its place. It's worth a purchase and I will consider another to build out multiplayer options going forward. ***Update: October '18 I felt I needed to update my star rating and explanation. I have dropped the quality to a 3, as the rear paddle buttons are not consistent. As a more specific answer, playing Rocket League, my rear right paddle is set to boost. During a match, there are intermittent times when the button will not function, drastically changing the outcome of my jump, clear, shot, etc. In training mode, I've been able to recreate the button not working using the same force, angle, pressure as when it does work, though I cannot determine the frequency of the issue. This is very disappointing as it is still a great controller in every other sense. ***Update: October '18 No reply from company through their customer support system. The rear AGR button continues to get worse, often acting as nothing is happening (not even a delay). I have no confidence in this controller and I'm VERY DISAPPOINTED in the quality at this point. It's JUNK. Seriously, do not buy this. Save yourself the headache and get something better. To Power A - We gave you a chance to put out a product and support it. YOU FAILED. *****Update December '18: I FINALLY received service after multiple attempts to contact and get the replacement going (calling seemed to help, but it was clearly a 3rd party company that sounded like it doubles as a daycare in the background). I filled out the email they sent me 3 different times (including the tiny numbers on the back of the controller), and was finally sent a replacement for free. Kudos for that. BUT... the replacement controller has a sticking "A" button right out of the box. This stuff is JUNK. Avoid this if possible. It's a great idea that meets the "wants" of a controller with this ability (rear buttons), but falls extremely short in delivering anything of quality. I'm not even going to bother with another round of customer service. Going to eat my losses and go back to my Steam Controller.
